PPG inaugurates e-coat primer pilot system in France for aerospace applications

17 November 2016

PPG officials hosted customers for a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the PPG coatings research centre in Marly, France, to open a new laboratory and inaugurate an electrocoat (e-coat) aerospace primer pilot operation. This is PPG’s second significant investment for an Aerocron e-coat primer installation, increasing global application capability for customer education.

Like the first PPG e-coat aerospace primer system, which is located near Pittsburgh, the Marly installation will be used for customer application trials and qualifications.

Daniel Bencun, Aerospace Coatings Segment Manager for the Europe, Middle East and Africa region, joined PPG Marly Manager Pascal Vanhamme in cutting the ribbon and opening the new e-coat laboratory.
